Hapag-Lloyd has announced new inland fuel surcharges for services in Italy. The new rates will take effect on 24 August 2026. However, shipments subject to US Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) rules will follow the new rates from 12 September 2026. The changes apply to both import and export inland haulage. Hapag-Lloyd said the update follows continued volatility in global energy markets. Changes in diesel prices have also affected inland transport costs. Truck surcharge set at 15% Hapag-Lloyd will apply a 15% fuel surcharge to truck transport in Italy. For combined rail and truck services, the surcharge will be 7.5%. The carrier will also remove the surcharge for rail-only transport. Therefore, the rate for these services will fall to 0%. The rates are: Truck transport: 15% Combined rail and truck: 7.5% Rail-only transport: 0% The changes apply to all container types. Hapag-Lloyd sets tariff dates For imports, the tariff date will depend on when the container is picked up from the port. Different rules apply to exports. For exports subject to FMC rules, the tariff date will be based on the full container gate-in date at the original port. For other exports, Hapag-Lloyd will use the vessel departure date. The changes cover Fuel Origin Inland and Fuel Destination Inland charges for services to and from Italy. The post Hapag-Lloyd adjusts inland fuel surcharges in Italy appeared first on Container News .
